Climbing gear: we spend hours caring for it, we dedicate huge areas of our homes to storing it and we even trust our lives to it. But how much do we actually know about where it comes from? Here at Climbing Daily, we decided to educate ourselves about the process of gear manufacture and in November last year, we headed to the headquarters of British climbing brand Wild Country. We met with the people involved at all stages of the manufacturing process and followed the production of their new Proton quickdraw from inception all the way up to actually getting it out on the crag.
